Another interesting talk from Ted.com. This one by Tom Honey, an English clergyman, who addresses the issue of how God can allow devastating tsunamis. I won't spoil the surprise of his answer. But I will say that I think the strongest part of his argument is that so long as we view God as outside our world when explaining evil, as puppet master, powerless, uncaring, etc. we have something unsatisfying and even offensive. The best case: find God with us, suffering right along with us. The question is: "Why?"
